What do/did you do for a living?

We have a household income above $350K/year, but I still don't buy a $1000 product with $9000 of hype . . . Having money does not mean spending it without doing the research first, and finding the best deals that meet the goals/need.

Fine Art Photographer & Faux Audiophile with Compulsive Gear Lust Syndrome. 
Industry Captain / Forensic Verminologist (Retired) / Neerdowell

ER/ICU RN. Currently working Covid crisis response.

Taught high school and elementary school for 25 years.  In between was a National Sales Training Mgr for a large multi-national and a GM/Branch Manager for four different companies.

I have been involved in product development and manufacturing for most of my career. Almost always had at least two jobs. I have been designing and building home audio gear since preteen years. I started Arion Audio in 2004. At first Arion was my second job, now it's my only job. I count my blessings daily (well maybe not when payables outpace receivables) to be working on and doing the things I most enjoys: designing, developing and manufacturing audio products and making great music. I have lots of very unusual speakers in my collection.
